WHO: anyone
WHERE: anywhere
WHEN: Day 9, morning through to late afternoon

[well there's still new landmarks to explore, new teammates (and new ragged individuals) to meet. occasional gunfire's been resounding through the woods sometimes, scaring birds up into the air and sending wandering pygmidillos in the meadow askitter.

what are you up to this fine day?]

Depends on the question.

[mykidisthebest]

I can make the question whatever you want. Red just wants me to "make someone confess a truth". So I'd probably have to compel the truth out of you for it to count. But, you know. You could just tell me a truth that anyone back home would know about you and it would work.

[secondbornsun]

What's the task for?

[mykidisthebest]

Pillows and blankets so I don't have to keep sleeping in the theater every night.

[secondbornsun]

. . . I'll help ya out, but I want something out of it, too.

[mykidisthebest]

What exactly do you want? I don't have much on me, but I don't mind a fair trade.

[secondbornsun]

Don't worry, I ain't gonna ask for much. Info for info, how's that?

[mykidisthebest]

That's all? It's a deal! Is it fine if I ask you a few questions about your world, then? That seems like a safe topic.

[secondbornsun]

Sure.

...I have to ask about the ears. Does everyone where you're from have animal ears?

[secondbornsun]

Nah.

that's fine. it works. it's a truth]


Can you turn into a lion?

[secondbornsun]

I am a lion.

[mykidisthebest]

[???????????????????????????]

Don't lions have. Paws? And more fur?

[secondbornsun]

rolls his eyes in a way that very much looks like.

ugh. humans. ]

Can I transform into a quadruped lion, you mean. Technically there are methods, but it ain't an inherent skill.

[mykidisthebest]

[that's fair he feels kind of racist now]

Got it. Sorry, I know it was a weird question to ask a stranger. I have a horned fire lion back home and I wanted to know if there was a skill that could let him turn into a human if he wanted to. He's always trying to text on the phone.

...Did you have a question to ask me at all?

[secondbornsun]

Yes. Who the fuck are y'all with these black collars.

[ did he just sleep through weed being established ]

[mykidisthebest]

Oh. We're pretty much like you guys for the most part, except some snake summoned us here to sow chaos and discord. I think he has a problem with Blossom. We don't have a barn and we probably don't do the herd mentality thing? Sorry if Patches tries to set something on fire. He's just like that.

[secondbornsun]

Yeah he already tried settin' Daffodil's barn on fire.

[mykidisthebest]

[he's not even my child why am I dealing with this

b-bows in apology]

I apologize on his behalf. Please feel free to kick his ass if he tries it again.

[secondbornsun]

Hmmh.

So? Are you here t'sow chaos an' discord?

[mykidisthebest]

I mean, I can't promise not to sow chaos accidentally, but I'm not going to do it on purpose. I'm just trying to get home.
